A few days ago we spontaneously got the bikes out and decided to ride all the way to the spray park. We've made it to DQ before, so I knew we'd be able to do it! We had already been to Costco and back and loaded up with some pretty great snacks.
We had a big chat before taking off about bike safety, being good listeners, and sticking together. With Daddy being away at young men's camp I was on my own, so I made Camilla in charge of staying in the back and keeping everyone together. Everyone was on their best behavior the entire way there and I was super grateful!
The kids were so happy when we got there! It was a super hot day and the water felt great! Oliver was in his glory!
We spent a good couple hours at the spray park keeping cool and eating snacks. When the littles were getting tired we loaded up and made our way home. Everybody was pretty played out and we took lots of breaks on the way back. As we biked the littles began fighting, pretending to crash into each other, and sticking their tongues out at each other. Camilla was in tears and wishing aloud that she didn't have any brothers. Finally I had to stop our little biker gang for a chat. As we got going again an older couple biked by. The lady slowed down and said to Camilla, "I had a brother too, I know what it's like..." Camilla quickly responded, "Yeah, but did you have FOUR of them?!" We were all pretty happy when home came into view...
